Analysis of escape mutants of Omani HBV isolates.

Abstract

<p>The amino acid sequences in the “a” determinant region of the Omani escape mutant isolates were aligned with the corresponding region of the reference sequences (HBV-genotypes A to H; GenBank accession numbers are denoted) by ClustalW with Neighbor Joining method and 1000 bootstrap replicates. Amino acid substitutions were highlighted.</p
